Cloud9 rejoins Rainbow 6 Siege ahead of Esports World Cup

The North American powerhouse, Cloud9 had a dry run in the R6 esports scene with their former SEA roster during 2021. Hence, they had to disband the team and parted ways with the R6 competitive scene. However, recently they announced their collaboration with another American org named Beastcoast, ahead of the Riyadh Esports World Cup 2024 in July.

Beastcoast had a stellar run in their 2024 R6 esports journey so far, winning both the North American League (A-Tier) and BLAST R6 Major Manchester (S-Tier). Hence, the NA powerhouse took this opportunity to strengthen the foundation to get access to the Esports World Cup.

The Saudi Esports Federation is yet to reveal the full list of teams participating in the prestigious tournament, but joint ownership with a Major winning team will surely help Cloud9 restore their former glory in the R6 esports scene.

With the much-awaited collaboration with the Manchester Major winner, the Cloud9 x Beastcoast roster will look something like this:

  • Ayden “dfuzr” Gabari
  • Gaven “Gaveni” Black
  • Shaun “Gunnar” Pottorff
  • Matthew “Hotancold” Stevens
  • Zachary “SpiriTz” Dionne
